Support University Libraries
University Libraries is the heart of teaching and learning at UNCG, and that is why we are open 5,700 hours per year. Students, faculty and community members rely on us for the education they find in our stacks and at our service desks; the history that is digitized and on display thanks to Special Collections; and the innovative resources of the Digital Media Commons, which include a green screen room, video game lab, and media equipment for rent. Amazing things can happen in the library, but every minute of operation costs us $2.46.
What can University Libraries do in one hour?
- 198 visitors
- 181 e-books checked out
- 12 questions answered by Libraries staff
- 42 online media resources streamed
- 248 digital media collection uses
- 6 digital cameras rented
- 1 item loaned to another library or organization
As the world celebrates #GivingTuesday, give your fellow Spartans an hour of transformative learning with a gift of $147.60 to the University Libraries Enrichment Fund. Your gift of any amount will impact the thousands of Spartans who utilize the Libraries every year.
